YA-A logical follow-up to James Horton's An Introduction to Drawing (Dorling Kindersley, 1994) that also stands alone, as Smith discusses basic techniques and materials, then concentrates on the anatomy, proportion, tone, and composition of the human body. The clear instructions, exercises, and well-chosen photographs and professional drawings enable budding artists to work independently. The eye-catching cover and the many appealing illustrations make this an irresistible find.Book Details
